Erie Zoo

http://www.eriezoo.org

Throughout the year, the Erie Zoo offers programs for individuals on different topics. Starting at 6 months, people of all ages can enjoy these classes. Touching Time teaches 6 month to 2 year olds and a parent how to properly touch and interact with animals. PreZooSchool, for 2 to 5 year olds, cover topics from animal mommies and daddies to specific types of animals, like lizards. For 6 to 12 year olds, ZooSchool consists of one-day classes about specific animals or habitats. PAWZZ (Purely Art With "Zooey" Zest) brings out the artist in your 6 to 12 year old. The art classes teach not only drawing techniques but also address other forms of art like mosaics and photography. During the summer, we offer different week-long summer zoo ventures for 4 to 12 year olds. These week-long summer zoo ventures on topics such as dinosaurs and zoo careers teach children songs, crafts and games. Our Teen Programs invite 11 to 18 year olds to become Junior Zookeepers and learn about zoo careers. Other teen programs have addressed animal behaviors and conservation. Families can enjoy programs together including overnights, family fun nights, and weekend programs throughout the year. For teachers, we offer Teacher Workshops which introduce teachers to the Zoo and provide them with information and activity ideas for teaching about life science topics. Teacher Workshops, Touching Time, PreZooSchool, ZooSchool, PAWZZ, Week-long Summer Zoo Ventures and Teen Programs are scheduled through our member newsletter, or by phoning the zoo office at 864-4091. We invite you to explore the education section and see what fits best for you or your group.

Buttonwood Park Zoo

http://www.bpzoo.org

Founded in 1969, the BPZS has provided support to the Zoo in various ways. Most recently, in the late 1980s through the mid-1990s, the City of New Bedford lacked funds to make needed improvements to the Zoo and it appeared to many that the Zoo would have to be closed. The BPZS never stopped in its advocacy for the Zoo and helped rally the community to save it. As a result of these efforts, the City undertook a $10.5 million renovation of the Zoo that was completed in 2000. Because of funding secured by the BPZS, thousands of schoolchildren each year visit the Zoo and participate in educational programming that focuses on the environment and improving educational attainment in the natural sciences. The BPZS also supports dozens of family and public events at the zoo each year, as well as conservation projects aimed at protecting local wildlife. If you would like to learn more about the BPZS, please call (508) 991-4556 x10 or visit our Volunteer Program page.
